Abstract
- Granulation tissues may arise around the nail in response to trauma to the nail or to ingrowing nails. Drugs, such as retinoids or antiviral agents may be the cause of granulation tissue of the whole body or nails. We experienced two cases of granulation tissue developed on the proximal nail folds and subungual area after putting on tight cast and Korean traditional socks respectively. We reported the cases with review of the literature.
